Apologies for the intemperate nature of my earlier post, but really!!!!!!!Sado-masochism or not, Kevin, have you ever tried to transport a couple of PCs, a toolkit and a load of boxed software on the train, bus or tube? On days when I only have a laptop and/or a briefcase I take the train, usually in squalor, overcrowding and discomfort (the bloody seats are designed for deformed midgets) - and they are frequently late.
Mudguard's idea would at least validate the use of LHD Smart cars! Couldn't draw our swords properly, though, and the lances could be a problem. Dammit, we've done away with pounds, shillings and pence, quarters, stones, pounds, ounces in my lifetime, how much more change can a chap take?
